Today, Activision confirmed that the third expansion to the immensely popular MMORPG World of Warcraft will be released on December 7th. World of Warcraft: Cataclysm will be available at a suggested retail price of $39.99 at retailers, but the game is also available for digital download in the Blizzard Store. The Collector’s Edition will be available for $79.99, and will only be available at retailers.
World of Warcraft: Cataclysm will add the Goblins and the Worgen as playable races to the ranks of the Horde and the Alliance respectively, and raise the overall level cap to 85. Besides new areas, the game also includes a redesigned version of Azeroth, the world that was introduced in the original World of Warcraft in 2004.
Looks like some families will need to celebrate the holidays a bit early.
